'Well wishes' for someone special

About a week ago, I noticed the following special request on the Indee Rose Trust Facebook page:-

"Who would like to send a card to one of our local treasure box children who is currently in Great Ormond Street receiving the biggest dose of chemo for the next 10 weeks. Let's decorate his room with well wishes. We know this helps with recovery and really supports. We received so many well wishes when Indee was in hospital it made her smile".

After a few days of gathering signatures, 'Lets Do It Anyway' has now sent a lovely batch of cards & a poster to the Indee Rose Trust, who will pass them on to the little boy who is having chemo for 10 weeks.....thank you to ALL who signed one of the many cards, we have lots of lovely signatures, including Darren Eadie's & also 'Doggy wishes' & handy hearts...THANKS ALL SO MUCH x
